Open day presentation

The mechanical engineering open day presentation took place on the 28 October. The project was partially completed with just the lift skirt operating. The pulleys and belt were not received in time to link the rotax to the rear propeller. The remote control system was completed on time however was not integrated into the mechanical control system as yet.

The lift skirt was demonstrated multiple times throughout the day. The project won first prize in our budget category out of 21 projects on display.
